[QUOTE="SRAD97750, post: 126262, member: 425"] Either way it's PIMP...:smirk: Looking for Fuel Tank options. As they don't sell an aftermarket tank and the OEM is near $300. I have sanded all the paint off the tank and it has come to a purple hue. Also, plastic gets a 'fuzz' when you sand it. Not sure the best way to handle this. I want it WHITE. Rattle can is not an option for this bike. Ever. Plastidip in the can seems logical as I can just peel it off and reapply as it gets dirty or wrecked. But still not a fan. Another idea I had was use this sweet black glossy leather GSXR fairing bra I have lying around and making it into a cool WR500 tank bra. I am good at sewing and It would survive the elements for quite some time. But is a leather tank cool on a Pimp Dinosaur??? :noidea: -BIG DAN:thumb: [/QUOTE]
